Max Pavlinov (born: August 7, 1992 ), better known online as Blitzwinger, is a gaming YouTuber. He plays many games such as Minecraft, Lego Marvel, Disney Infinity, Skylanders, Sonic, Mario, Plants vs. Zombies, and various other games. He often adds Blitz to the beginning of his titles or series. The meaning of his name comes from the Decepticon Blitzwing which is a triple changer. The Decepticon's motto is 'Destroy first, think later' he does this in his LEGO games. Blitzwinger also has 3 other channels called BlitzToys in which he unboxes toys and does reviews (Later turned into Max Kapnik), FanboyPotion in which he plays games for more mature audience, and Max Kapnik in which he uploads a podcast. Although Blitzwinger and FanboyPotion channels keeps a child friendly commentary, his Max Kapnik channel may contain swearing.
Minecraft
Blitzwinger started Minecraft later than other YouTubers. correct to his tradition, he called his survival series Blitzcraft. Right now he has over 50 Minecraft videos. He also had a creative series where he would build a village called Blitzvillage. In Blitzvillage, he would let his subscribers interact with the series via twitter and YouTube. When he'd finish a project, he'd asks his subscribers, or Blitzarmy, what they want him to build next. Blitzwinger had used to allow his fans to submit their creations on his twitter page and feature them in his videos, but he has since stopped doing build requests and by episode 64 the series stopped, but came back for a season 2 (Which has also stopped).
Blitzwinger has also done multiplayer with other YouTubers such as NereusGod, AthixGaming (Who has quit YouTube), Bashurverse, LegendofKayllum, FrizzlenPop and UnlimitedMagic. UnlimitedMagic and Blitzwinger had 6 seasons of a series called Yolocraft. Yolocraft was a Minecraft series where the gamemode was set to hardcore and Blitzwinger along with UnlimitedMagic would try to survive. If one of them dies, the season would be over and they'd start a new one. In addition, every once and a while they would cheat the system, hence the fifth season is modded. The Seventh Season of Yolocraft is coming in 2017. Blitzwinger, Bashurverse and UnlimitedMagic also do other multiplayer adventure maps and minigames like One in the Quiver, Bridges PvP and other stuff like that. Every once in a while NereusGod or Athix joins them. Blitzvillage has made a return in 2017 which includes 30 episodes with UnlimitedMagic. Season 2 for Blitzvillage will also be following after the seventh season of Yolocraft is released! He also played Minecraft on the Ps3 and later on the Ps4, but would stop after episode 19 on the Ps4 (episode 42 for the entire series). He would later being a new series again back in September of 2018, only for it to suddenly stop after episode 4. There does seem to be a trend where Blitzwinger will make a Minecraft series and then after a while he would just end it and not mention it ever again or explain why it ended.
